The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt. ~Frederick Buechner
This quote reminded me of the movie "Babel". I did not like this movie; it haunted me for days and nights, still does. How every single thing we do and say has a rippling effect that never stops.
If only the negative things I say and do would not affect a soul. I read something a while ago by Max Lucado; he said there is never an excuse good enough for saying or doing something hurtful. Ouch!
Lately, I have been tired, drained, worried, scared, confused, etc... Dealing with things I do not want to deal with or have to take care of... but I have no choice, and I have been very edgy with people. I want life, the planet, everything around me to feel normal. It doesn't. I want my faith to be enough so that things will fall into place. It's not... but, LIFE goes on... and on… So, when I am ready to release my Irish temper on the next poor victim, I will TRY and remind myself of this quote.
